Diary of a post c section belly - aka a 28 year old newbie mum

[Lauratheloop]

Hi Laura, thanks for your post. I reached about 15 stone at my heaviest before having Jude in Nov last year. Im 11,5 now & would like to lose another stone or so. My pregnancy belly was massive. My boy was a big boy at nearly 9,6 & he was 57cm long. My belly seemed to go all the way around my back. I now have an overhang lol. Admittedly it's got smaller but my belly is my main problem! Do you do any specific exercise for that area? I'm sorry about your birth experience x

I did allot of spinning an well your constantly sucking it in doing that ... I think it's great to do any cardio and resistance mixed.... I'm going to start 30 day shred today as I've heard good things about it - so we shall see
I guess weight loss is key but I haven't the stretchy skin loaded with stretch marks all over but it seems to have bounced back - maybe because my loss had been so gradual over so many months rather then quick te skin has time to adjust

Heres hoping hey ;-) lol cxx

Really feel for ya hun, sleep deprivation sucks, I find tho the less exercise I do the less energy I have but not sure like you I could manage anything without my sleep!
Hope the nights get better soon xx

Morning guys, the way im feeling today im not sure if I can commit to a diet. My body is so tired it's screaming out for food for energy. Gonna have a break.. not eat crap but just do my own thing. May calorie count a bit, do a bit of WW & slimming world. I wish you luck on your journeys! I may blog on here a bit.. who knows x
